Video showing the German-provided Skynex air defense system active in Ukraine. This Rheinmetal creation combines a 35mm autocannon with radar targeting, providing Ukraine with a substantial capability. Relatively cheap munitions such as Iranian-provided Shahed drones or the home-manufactured rockets launched by Hamas, create a challenge for defenders with missile-based platforms in that the munition fired by Patriot or Iron Dome is more expensive to produce that the incoming threat. In a protracted war, supporting a defensive anti-air campaign becomes financially difficult. I have stated for some time that guided gun and bullet platforms offer a more sustainable solution, and Skynex is one example.
